Just to reiterate what I said in past(Palbay may disagree)
Although engine will be same as F01 7-series but a different verison:
From Bimmerfile:

Just a reality check for all those sites out there claiming to have pictures a true M X5 circling the ‘Ring. It’s not going to happen - it was never going to happen. The car currently being tested is simply a sport edition of the new X5 a la the 4.8is from the 1st generation. It will come with the twin turbo V8 and put just over 400 hp. This is the same engine currently in the X6-50i and the same engine that will see the light of day in the new 7 Series next year.

That's what I call a bump!

:bump:

That's also what I call "stating the obvious..." I think we all knew that a [Mazda] M-X5 wasn't coming, did we not?

In any event, I am excited to see the "is" version of the E70. More power than the X6 4.4, I hope.

Stupid question: Who/what is "Bimmerfile"?

Also, what is the broad market ETA for the V8 TT 400hp in the X5?

because BMW have stated the X6 is NOT an X5 and they will develop each variant on its own accord - 2 different cars for 2 different markets

the big question is - why would you buy an X6?

i doubt this is production, but would make for easy swapping in and out for testing
